Almost there!

In the next few days I am expecting a nice little package to arrive on my doorstep, it will be the basic components to get on and start building my own little robotic arm using the Lynxmotion servo erector set.
While the do have sets prepared that just need assembling I have decided to go down a different path and selected the pieces I need to build my own little arm, I'm not experienced enough yet to simply pick out pieces and create something from scratch so I am using this arm as a template. I have had to reverse engineer it just using the picture to put together a parts list to order, I also have a rotating base on order too.

I have more of less finished the code I need to control the arm with potentiometers, there will be six in total with each controlling a degree of motion as listed below.

1. Base
2. Shoulder
3. Elbow
4. Wrist
5. Grip Rotate
6. Gripper

 With the pots, servos and the LCD screen in use I have run out of space on my Arduino Uno, Its the perfect excuse I have been looking for to buy a Mega. however there will soon be another option available that I am getting very excited about and its this UDOO! Think of it as a Raspberry pi on steroids with a Arduino Due rammed down its throat for good measure. with a funding level of 1,600%+ on Kickstarter I think its safe to say lots of others also like the idea.

Last but not least if the code I am using, I have learned allot more but none of it really shows here, despite being written again from scratch this is still a modified version of the previous piece of code, the only difference being the extra two servo's and some variables being renamed.
I wont be adding colour to it tonight, it takes far to long and I want to get on and play a game of Supreme Commander. I will probably do it in the next few days in addition to posting something about the Arm too.
